Chapter 171: Lecture 2
So far, there has not been such a large-scale stage or auditorium. If you want to give a big speech, it is usually in the open square in the center of town. It can be applied to all government decrees, military parades, and the like. However, Wulian City is not an ordinary town, but a gathering place built around the magic tower, so when you realize that you need to keep a square, only a small area will be left.
Similarly, the system of the Wizards' Guild is a collegiate system, and although it is nominally the president, its function is more like that of the speaker. It's just that when the person who is elected is strong enough and strong enough, the power of this president will be great. Because most magicians are impatient to take care of these non-magical things, there is a powerful leader who takes over some trouble, and everyone is naturally very happy.
Since it is a collegiate system, there is a parliamentary space. Of course, it is impossible to accommodate all magicians, that is, some people of high moral standing are only eligible to enter the council after being elected and recognized by the majority, so the meeting space for a magician assembly will not be too large.
And Lin You've been to see it, it's similar to the round council of the ancient Roman Republic, and the speaker is standing in the center. It's similar to the Colosseum, but it's a little smaller and has more roofs. To put it bluntly, the capacity is not very large. It was bigger than the tavern I had borrowed from the Lois Wizard before, but it was still barely enough to accommodate the number of people I had yesterday.
To put it simply, Lin wants to continue to give lectures, and there is no hope for the indoor venue. The outdoor open-air field is also the square of Wulian City, but if there are more people, it is not a comfortable environment. Considering that I didn't create the charm of the dance floor in the rock district, I had to think about being more relaxed in the arrangement. As for the manor provided by the president, the situation can only be confirmed if you have actually seen it.
With the support of the president, the college's plan is in full swing.
Since it was the initial stage, there wasn't much going on. One of the most difficult parts was to get the list of magic apprentices who had been brought to the city from Shulion. Then exclude those who have already been officially accepted by the magicians, and the rest of the people will have to go all over the city to find them.
However, it has been more than two years since the establishment of the fund, and it has not been until more than a year ago that people have begun to be brought to Wulian City. However, some of these people remained in Wulian City, and some left. Whoever left and who stayed, but there was no record, so I could only look for it blindly. Moreover, some people were sanctioned for committing crimes, and the bloody names made Lin regretful.
And the rest, some of whom have given up hope and are at the bottom of this bustling city. Some people are still struggling, and seeing Lin's appearance, they explained their intentions, only tears flowed down their faces, and they couldn't say half a word, which was really sad.
Twenty-six people gathered, both men and women, the oldest in his twenties and the youngest in his nine. These people are not some disliked crooked melons and bad dates, after a year at most, and at least a few months of suffering, this group of people's willpower is firm enough. Especially the youngest ghost of the machine, if he hadn't been a little clever, I'm afraid he would have died in a ditch somewhere, and he wouldn't be able to survive now.
However, their common characteristic is that their magical talents are not excellent, but they are also better than the three masters and apprentices such as Lin standing in front of them. If they had come from a wealthy merchant or a nobleman, they had given a little money to some of the more money-greedy magicians, or promised long-term funding, perhaps they would not have fallen to where they are now.
But they are just middle-aged people, they come from poor families, and ordinary magicians are either unwilling to invest their efforts and costs on them, or they are powerless because there are too many people.
Now that Lin has gathered them again, it may seem that he has just drawn another piece of cake, and he can only look at it at this stage. But they are determined to fight again, and not to disappear in this bustling city of magicians like those who have given up.
But the first thing they did was not to learn magic, but to clean the environment.
Temporarily took over the right to use the manor from the president, and the door number was quietly changed to 'Orange Fruit Eton College' when everyone was not paying attention. Since there was only minimal care in the past, it was not dilapidated, but it will take a lot of effort to fully restore its use. So the first thing this group of children did was to organize their future learning environment.
In addition to this group of children, a group of people were also found to manage the daily life in the college. The main thing is to recruit from the acquaintance of Najib, the manager of the Chamber of Commerce, his wife and people he knows. They are all elderly women, who may not be able to fight on the battlefield or do some coolies, but they all have rich experience in taking care of people, and they are handy at managing a group of little hairy heads.
Moreover, this group of children is not here to be the grandfather, so the trivial chores of life, including cleaning, washing vegetables, and cooking, are shared by themselves, but they still need to be managed by the elderly. Lin also had a childhood, how could he not know that without his parents by his side, how many children could live a normal life. This is not to say that children can't take care of themselves, but they just play crazy......
In consideration of hygiene, several bathrooms and men's and women's toilets have been set up. The president had already agreed that he could modify it at will, and as long as he didn't blow up the whole house, he didn't bother with anything else. So Lin quickly booked the materials and carried out the transformation. Fortunately, the two girls are already familiar with this aspect of decoration, so they share a lot of work, which makes things progress a lot faster.
However, whenever the two girls came back to help the academy, they must have put on their magician's shawls and carefully tied two silver spikes. No way, those little hairy heads may know how to pretend to be grandchildren in front of the magician; But Harumi and Kaya were only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they couldn't be stopped, especially since most of them were older than the two girls. And the nine-year-old little machine ghost is even more unconvinced.
If it weren't for the magic skills shown in the process of building the toilet, the two talented girls would not have been bullied by children taller than them. This can't be blamed on this group of children, who were born at the bottom and encountered injustice after coming to Wulian City, so they will naturally be jealous of their brightly dressed peers or children of similar age.
And the two girls are not submissive characters, especially after knowing that the magic talent of this group of people is higher than their own, they pay more attention to the dress of their apprenticeship. Maybe he doesn't have any offense or sarcasm in his language, but he always casually emphasizes the fact that he is already a second-ring magic apprentice.
Someone's thoughts on this are: Cut, a bunch of little kids! As for the management, Lin didn't want to take care of it. As long as it does not escalate to the level of verbal disputes and physical conflicts, it is good to have a sense of competition.
Secondly, because it took a lot of time to find someone, and in two days it would be the expected second week of the lecture day, so Lin also had to prepare as soon as possible. The garden of the college is ideal, and there are not too many tall trees blocking the open space, so after tidying up, we will set up a high platform for speeches, and the preparation will be over for the time being.
The next thing is to announce the news, and by the way, remind you that you also have to bring a working environment in P language, if you want to try it out on the spot. That's the program that comes with the book, and it's included with the purchase of the reference book. In the same way, you have to bring your own magic stones to reproduce, and the meager cost does not include expensive magic stones.
Because you have to use whiteboard markers outdoors to explain the board book and show some screen images, you can't do it in an environment where the light is too strong, so you can only choose to do it at night.
Considering that there is a distance between the college and Wulian City, it is night time. Whether it's rushing over when you're full, or waiting on an empty stomach before going back to eat, it's a rather embarrassing time. So Lin contacted a few vendors selling food and drinks and asked them to come to the academy to set up their stalls.
These vendors are some of the friends Lin Yu made when he was an apprentice in Wulian City. Originally, they only did business in the morning market, and in the evenings they rested or made preparations.
There is no concept of a night market in the mistery, and the places that will be lively at night are all places where there is a skin and meat business. And most people's so-called dinner is actually eaten at dusk. It was Lin, the guy who couldn't hold back his hunger, who had one more meal at noon, and dinner was postponed until after nightfall.
The much-anticipated second lecture unfolded in a new place, under the moonlight, in chaos......
Yes, the scene can be described as chaotic as unmistakable.
Everywhere you look, there are full of human heads, and not a single piece of turf has survived. The vendors selling food have even cleaned the bottom of the pot, and the monks who can't eat it are preparing to smash the stalls. Someone took a temporary tin roll and gave it out loud and forcefully, without saying a word three times, I'm afraid no one would understand.
In addition, in order to make the content on the screen clear to everyone, the water mirror technique is to stand up on three sides, and overload, directly zoom in to the limit, and the picture is slightly distorted. But the color of the water mirror screen reflects the moonlight, which is full of colors, and it is very beautiful......
Is that the right description? Someone doesn't know either. He only knew that in the original idea, he should be like the god Jobs, bathed in the soft moonlight, and preach easily on the stage, encouraging a vote of people who don't know whether to live or die to join the ranks of the programmed apes.
That graceful demeanor is no longer seen in reality. If this scene rests on Earth, it must be a rock superstar level concert. The people on the stage roared vigorously, like the lead singer of heavy metal music, roaring hoarsely, sweating profusely, roaring out of their hearts and lungs, and roaring from the depths of their souls.
Is that the end of it?
Of course not!
The small conversations in the audience have not been interrupted, and even those who have questions and want to find trouble are all blurted out and questioned loudly, not politely.
This is the first lesson of all program introductions, 'hello_world', and most people haven't typed it yet, and the hour is almost over. So just like Lin was worried about in the middle of the lecture, today's session was not so easy to end.
By the time the last guest was sent out of the academy, it was already the middle of the night. Not to mention that someone in the main lecture was tired enough, and the group of children who were caught were also shocked by this big scene. Now, there is still a mess waiting to be cleaned up, and everyone is miserable.
I want to chat with more like-minded people about "The Starry Sky of the Magic Tower", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
